MaxLine Compressed Air Line Install ― Miter Saw Quadrant
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 09. 2024
- My woodshop's compressed air will be installed in four quadrants - each one will connect service to an air drop at a strategic location. The SE Quadrant that is installed in this video is the hardest to install, and will serve a drop to the miter saw area. There is already an air chuck at the compressor, so between the two there will be all that is needed as far as air goes while I work on the rest of the shop.
The second quadrant (the NW Quadrant) will supply air to an axillary drop in the shop, and will feed a hose reel in the garage area behind the north wall. The third quadrant (the NE Quadrant) will feed a drop that has a manifold that will feed several air chucks and will service the downdraft sanding table. The last quadrant (the SE Quadrant) will loop back to the air compressor, and feed both an interior outlet and an exterior outlet for when I work outside.
There will be manual drains at all of the drops, and two auto drains at the compressor and cooling loops. The next compressor-related videos will be wiring-up the compressor and running the start-up procedure, then a video testing the lines. I may wrap all of this into one video.

Thank you for watching Trap Door Woodworks and have yourself a great day!
I just got notice that the plug for the far end of the air line will arrive Monday, so I should be good to so for testing of the compressed air system any time after that. It looks like the next few weeks will be very busy here!

We need a Meet Mojo episode where you sit and explain your past, present and future. You do so many things well, I would truly like to hear who you are and how you came to be.
Thanks J, I may do something like that some day! In a nutshell; I have worked a bunch of jobs back in the day, and grew up very poor (lived in a housing project) so learned how to fix things early on 😉 Professionally, I have worked with wood in one way or another my entire life (apprenticed as a cabinetmaker back in the 70's and owned my own custom furniture business), and that led to software engineer gig (designing 3D interiors for mega yachts) and my own software engineering company more recently. Having said that, I also did roofing, siding, window installation, plumbing, framing, and helped my electrician uncle pull wires on commercial jobs, and was a chef at a fancy restaurant. 🥴
@@TrapDoorWoodworks No wonder your skillset is so varied and thorough! You are a natural at explaining stuff, and I really like watching, put yourself on camera more, people will respond! Your personality sells!
@@jned3967 There lies the problem. I'm very shy, but have been trying to figure out how to go about it for as long as I've had the channel. 😐
@@TrapDoorWoodworks The only way to conquer shyness is to get accustomed to putting yourself out there, a little at a time! I will be here watching! I honestly think that will drive the channel as much as anything you have done. Just putting yourself out there. Easier said than done, I know!
Your right, excellent suggestion 😊👍
That looks pretty difficult, but not nearly as hard as black pipe! I helped a friend run some black pipe for his auto body shop about 20 years ago, and it was very difficult! We rented a pipe threader and had to pre-assemble large sections of the system and hoist it into place. It was heavy, oily, and rusty. They sure have come a long way with this!
I fixed a bit of black pipe line at a shop I worked at way back when. It was a short section, but it took all day. It was a rusty mess, and I had to use a hand die to thread the ends. Black pipe is very strong, and they will continue to use it for larger systems, but I don't think it will be used at all for 1" systems and less moving forward. 🤔
It makes absolutely no difference to the system, but I really like the looks of that blue line running along the corner of the ceiling like that! It will look even better when you get rid of those temporary extension cords, but it still looks great now! 😊
Thanks Jerry, It does look pretty sweet 😉
Hi Mojo, great video and your skill level is right up there.here in the UK it's been a pretty disappointing summer so far it's just hovering between 18c and 20c in the day and some nights as low as 8c👎
Thanks Larry! That would be perfect working weather for me! Today it will be 91º and very humid (33℃) here, and I think I'll head to the store for supplies and sit this one out. It was the same yesterday, and I worked through it 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Right now I am using a 20 gallon horizontal compressor on wheels. Do you think I could hook that up to this MaxLine pipe? Maybe the 1/2" stuff?
I used a 20 gallon compressor like that in my original shop. I hoisted it up in the rafters and mounted it on foam, then ran regular rubber air line to a couple places in the shop. It was NOT enough air for a sander, but worked for guns. The hose was 3/8", but even if I went up to 1/2" it would not have been able to keep up with a sander. I would say the MaxLine 1/2" would work awesome for your system as long as it's not too large. That way you could upgrade the compressor at any time and be able to run a sander if you like (pneumatic sanders are the best in my opinion). Hope that helps! 😊
